A spellbinding floribunda with fascinating colour blooms of silvery white, shaded and blotched purple mauve in an almost surreal combination.
They are medium sized and double with multi petals prettily arranged creating an attractive ruffled appearance.
The scented flowers are carried in large trusses and borne plentifully on a bushy plant of neat even habit that grows easily and is densely covered with foliage. Specially named for the north west area of NAFAS (National Association of Flower Arrangement Societies) to celebrate their Golden Anniversary in 2011. Bred by Fryers UK. GOLD STANDARD AWARD WINNER 2011. Since 2006 a few roses are selected each year for this prestigious award. Based on cumulative information from invited independent judges, the Gold Standard is awarded to worthy varieties.
Health, floriferousness, scent and commercial appeal are all considered key factors in the final choice.
